Nice to see these blossoms out the other day … but then we had another couple inches of snow. But that’s springtime weather too, I guess. Well, early spring, anyway.
Signs of Spring
Cold Weather Sipping
The Port Townsend Vineyard’s tasting room in right along the waterfront in downtown PT. Besides a very nice interior space, there is an excellent patio that is enjoyed year round (by those souls brave enough). When the sun comes out in the middle of winter, bundling up around a fire with a nice glass of wine is enjoyed by many.
Misty Mountain Views
These two were taken at the same time, just with the top one zoomed in on the ridgeline. The mountains are the northeast corner of the Olympic Mountains as seen from the waterfront in Port Townsend. We had just had a brush with an “atmospheric river” … Port Townsend barely got wet from the rain shadow effect from the Olympics. But the left over moisture in the air is clearly visible in the mist.
Old Tractor
This old Massey-Harris-Ferguson tractor sits in the field with the old trucks shown in the last post. I especially love the moss growing on the dash. I really hope this tractor is still operational, even if it just mows the field.
Old Trucks
These trucks are all found in the same area. They make a nice set, but you need a lot of space if you are going to keep old trucks and not have them right next to each other. These were shot on Portra 400 with my Nikon FM3a … one of the last film cameras that Nikon offered … and the only one of the last, best Nikons to have manual focusing.
